Message from Owner

This morning has been a nightmare. Tim and I have lost our sweet Ellie. She was experiencing a lot of pain and not eating yesterday so we took her in to be seen at Carolina Animal Specialty & Emergency in Hickory. After 5 and a half hours, she got to be seen and was given pain medicine. As Tim was bringing her out to the car she got away and ran across the road to a fenced in lot with a wooded area. We are absolutely devastated 💔 If you are in the area and see our sweet girl or know how we could search the area please let us know.

Maybe best to look at night so you can see her eyes shining in a flashlight. Shake a food bag. I would are an animal tracker, or someone that has a drone that has capabilities of helping look. Cats like to hide and that’s why I say at night it’s easy to see their eyes. You could reach out to someone like EPIC Animal Recovery maybe send them a message in messenger to see if they would call and help advise you over the phone. The vet should’ve put the cat in a carrier before you walked out the door. That is such a busy road 😢. 🙏You find your cat safe.

I don't live too far and I often drive that way. I'll keep a lookout. Is the Animal Hospital helping by posting flyers and putting food and water out for her?
